Residing in the Victorian brick arches of Bagley Walk, the design of our Coal Drops Yard store pays homage to the functional style of Cubitts’ namesake, architect Lewis Cubitt. A clean, timeless design referencing the Lewis Cubitt principles. incorporating a simple and pared back interior with entirely bespoke furnishings. Painted in a dark brunswick green inspired by The Flying Scotsman, a nod to Kings Cross station as a rail hub.

Available exclusively at this location is The Coal Drops Yard Collection, which consists of four frames inspired by influential figures from King's Cross history.

Design Notes
Residing in the Victorian brick arches of Bagley Walk, the design of our Coal Drops Yard store pays homage to the functional style of Cubitts’ namesake, architect Lewis Cubitt. Cascading plants fill the store, celebrating the renewal and rejuvenation of the King’s Cross area. A hydroponic system is a nod to water's enduring role in the area - the Spa Fields, the lost River Fleet, and the Regent's Canal.
